A Theological Guide to Calvin's Institutes fills a gap in the literature for Reformation studies. While much has been written about the Institutes, this book is the first to undertake a section-by-section analysis of John Calvin's magnum opus.
Capturing both the best of elite scholarship, as well as exhibiting a
firm understanding of and passion for Calvin's own work, these essays
by twenty elite Calvin scholars who appreciate the abiding value of
Calvin's Institutes provide definitive and section-by-section
commentary on Calvin's magnum opus. Capturing both the best of elite
scholarship, as well as exhibiting a firm understanding of and passion
for Calvin's own work, these essays provide definitive commentary from
Calvin scholars who seek to elucidate his work and display its abiding
value. This long-needed work serves as the natural companion to
Calvin's The Institutes of the Christian Religion for classes,
students, pastors, and others for years to come.

Endorsements:
"This book is the work of a team of scholars... Full advantage
is taken of the current cottage industry of Calvin studies, which has
achieved already notable insights in many areas. The essays vary in
technical level, but are all strong and clear for the wayfaring man,
and some are outstanding. They add up to a very valuable volume, which
I commend with enthusiasm. For making Calvin known today as well as
once he was, and in every age deserves to be, this really is a major
step forward."
—J. I. Packer (Professor of Theology, Regent College, Vancouver)
"As a contribution to the celebrations marking the 500th anniversary
of Calvin's birth, this collection of essays is to be warmly welcomed... The essays cover a wide range of subjects, and everyone will find something which speaks to his own interests... If this symposium leads people back to read Calvin's Institutes for
themselves, it will have fulfilled a good purpose."
—Professor A.T.B. McGowan (Principal, Highland Theological College, Scotland)

In this classic book, these five points are concisely explained in the light of the Bible. They are also helpfully contrasted with the corresponding five points of Arminianism, which originally prompted the Calvinistic five-point statement at Dort.
